Any commentary on this from the left? Exaggerated trend unlikely to be lasting? Obviously no one's changing their voting habits, but enthusiasm matters.

The whole “settler colonist” catch phrase proggles are using now is so dumb. It’s like they fishing for just the right way to other a group so that violence against them is morally justified.

Publicly identifying yourself as a colonizer (say, through a land acknowledgement) seems to have a lot more weight all of a sudden.

Almost feel bad for them. Has there been a popular movement during their conscious lives that had an "other side" to it? Certainly they were around for #MeToo and #BlackLivesMatter, where any sentiments not 100% in favor of were laughed out of polite company. How were they to know other issues have well organized and represented opponents?
